Mexican catering in Payden Street, from our truck or trailer
The menu starts with tacos: warm tortillas with your choice of fillings, plus fresh salsas, guacamole and toppings. Burritos, burrito bowls, loaded nachos and quesadillas can sit alongside them. At weddings, day or evening and fairs and festivals, we’ll put together a menu of burritos, a build-your-own taco bar and burrito bowls for your guests.
Somewhere as small as Payden Street, a garden or field is often the venue. Country lanes, long drives and gates are fine if we know about them, and soft ground after rain is worth mentioning. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so one caterer can cover more of the day.

Space, access and the venue
Every venue is different, so we’ll ask about yours when you contact us. Generally, we look for:
- Agreement from the venue to bring a food truck or trailer on site
- Hardstanding or firm, level ground to park on
- A route in that is wide and tall enough, with soft ground checked in advance
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Can I do a taco night myself?
You can set up your own drinks table, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.
Planners, venues and businesses
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.

- You get a sample menu and a quote.
- We agree access, the serving spot, power and water.
- On the day we park up, set up and serve hot food to order.
